Tie -

Which growth rate are you assuming? Management has warned repeatedly that the early growth rate was not sustainable.

Revenues from core American book sales were up just 13.5% quarter over quarter, down from 33% sequential growth the prior quarter. The 13.5% was in line with analysts expectations and management warnings. With such a rate of deceleration, tripling revenue in 5 years would be a real achievement.

It's true they're making up for the deceleration in the American book sales by expanding into other markets and products, but those increases in sales come at the expense of dilution from issuing more stock.
